Walmart officials announced that the company has fulfilled its commitment to hire 200,000 associates during this time.
In a statement, officials announced $180 million in bonuses to hourly associates.
“This is in addition to the special cash bonus for all U.S. hourly associates earlier this month, which was $300 for full-time hourly and $150 for part-time hourly, a total of more than $365 million paid to our associates.”
Officials say the company continues to focus on the health of the employees by providing masks and gloves to wear while they work and daily health screenings.
Sneeze guards have also been placed at the registers.
“We appreciate everything our associates are doing to serve our customers and communities. They’re truly making a difference.”
